The Minister, Deputy McCreevy, mentioned changes in vehicle registration tax. This country's failure to tackle this issue flies in the face of what happens in Europe. The VRT rate for a car with an engine capacity of less than 1400cc is 22.5% of the open market selling price, the rate is 25% for cars between 1401cc and 1901cc and it is 30% in relation to cars that are over 1902cc, as a result of the Minister's adjustment. VRT represents a huge imposition on a person buying even a modest family car.
